Sting is getting a little help from his friends to raise money for the rainforest. The superstar singer will hold a Sting & Friends “WE’LL BE TOGETHER” Benefit Concert on December 9 at the Beacon Theatre in New York. The Rainforest Fund announced its spectacular lineup of musical legends performing in concert from New York City. Hosted by Robert Downey Jr., the iconic roster of globally renowned artists also set to take the stage with Sting include Bruce Springsteen, John Mellencamp, James Taylor, Bob Geldof, Shaggy, Ricky Martin, H.E.R., MJ Rodriguez, and Eurythmics with additional names to soon be announced.
Since the Rainforest Fund’s inception, Trudie Styler and Sting have been committed to protecting the world’s rainforests and supporting the human rights of the indigenous peoples who live within them. All proceeds from the benefit concert will go directly to the protection and support of the Indigenous people and their land, for they are the best protectors of this vital element of our ecosystem.
Trudie Styler will produce the event, a cause that she and Sting have been devoted to for years.
“With the Amazon blighted by fire this summer, and a real and growing awareness of climate change, there has never been a more important or more opportune moment to fight to protect our forests, Styler said. “All life on earth depends on their survival.”
Tickets for the show will be available for purchase by the general public beginning at 9:00 A.M. on Friday, November 1, 2019 via Ticketmaster.com and Ticketmaster Charge by Phone (1-866-858-0008).
